Abstract

Two emergent giants, biotechnology and bioengineering, result from an ancient-new bond among science technology and society. Such bind determines certain specific features, which demand bioethics deliberation discourse to understand real meaning of research on these areas, qualifications of professional’s involved and desirable application of results

Thought on this subject aims toward elucidation of science, technique and biotechnology as defined disciplines Upon these thoughts, phenomena of pseudo-science and scientificism are exposed with a conc1usive analysis of flaws causing its appearance.

Finally, work presents thoughts relating science-industry links with some c1ues on man-nature bond. Summing up, author tries to outline importance of self-individual improvement as imperative to take advantage of science and technology potential benefit, since scope of these later subjects ultimately depend on man boundaries, not quite conversely. At bottom, every scientific activity deals with the search for truth.
